Relaxed Weekend
This weekend has been quite nice, relaxed and laid-back. Except for my daughter getting a bit of fever at night. We have watched a couple of movies: Hitchhikers Guide and Bride and Prejudice. Also, we managed to complete our quest to view the first season of
Charmed.
Tonight, I’m going to watch some more TV. Got several films and series waiting to be watched
Hitchhikers guide was quite a let-down. I have read parts of the books and really feel that the new movie version lacks the fascinating wordplays which made me laugh. I have seen the BBC version of the books, much better IMHO. Not as technically well-done as the new movie, but much more humoristic. This movie is not recommended.
Bride and Predjucdice took a whole new spin on the classical drama by Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice. Lots of actual Bollywood-ness and modern takes on the classical characters. Recommended as an easy going and alternative movie.
Alright, I admit it. I really like supernatural series/movies. Charmed is about witches, as in good witches battling evil. It has elements of humour and sometimes too much emotional distress. I feel the series is worth watching and in this season, I especially liked the episode where Trudeau discovers the truth about about the Halliwell sisters. Can’t wait to get started on season two
